Welcome to Community Service-Learning!

Community Service-Learning (CSL) integrates meaningful community service with classroom instruction and critical reflection to enrich the learning experience and strengthen communities for the common good.

CSL Students for Winter 2012 Semester:

By this point in the semester you should be finished your CSL placement or project.  Please remember, to thank your community partner for the opportunity to serve with them.  Remember to complete and have the supervisor sign your Placement Attendance Form.  That form should then be handed in to your course instructor. 

Consider discussing with your placement supervisor the possibility of staying on or returning as a volunteer with the organization!

Please contact a CSL coordinator if you are having any issues with finishing your placement.
